How to choose a career |
When you just head out towards a shopping mall for shopping, all your family mates along with you, help you out to choose a dress from a dozen of other dresses. Those dozens of dresses include all the clothes available in the retailer’s shop for your shape and size. We get into a interrogative mode with the shop’s owner and try to get out of your choice. From those dozens, we get few of them and we then take a trail of each one of them so that it fit you in all manner whether it be physical or economical. Now look, here a point of great importance.
You just want one piece of cloth to cover your body and you were so selective about each and every aspect of it. Are we this selective when it comes to choose a career or find out some profession for your future?
Confused |
Your career should be your first priority when it comes about dealing with the future. You should be able to pave out your career path where choosing a career is your first and foremost destination.
There are a lot of topics which needs to be discussed upon when we are trying to find out what we want to do in the future. Choosing a career for life is just a mirage whereas choosing a right career is still.
So, in this article below, we will be discussing about the process of selection of a career in four easy steps considering all the odds and eves of this career selection process.
1. Knowledge of various career in different walks of life:
It is important for you to take a broad sense of knowledge about various careers and their curriculum within them. Knowledge opens up your horizons and help you look from a different perspective. You need to look at the insights of each and every career available for you. You need to talk to experts in those field and then frame your own career path. In short, it’s just like studying a career before studying in the career. Your career path should be well defined. One short tip-while having conservation with experts, you should also talk to people who have failed in that career so that you may gain knowledge about their experience and would avoid mistakes that they have committed.
2. Identify yourself:
You need to identify yourself and think about a career that suites you the most. You can do this in the following ways:
• What do you love the most?
• Is there something which you can do without being bored?
• What gives you the inner pleasure?
• What are your expectation and your goals in life?
• Will your career help you to achieve all your goals in life?
• Is your behavior coinciding with your career?
3. Follow your passion:
In countries like India, there’s a lot of people who would give you advice in every walk of life. Some advice may counter your choice or some might clash with other loads of advice. Its upon you to think wisely about your career and your career path. Listen to everyone very wisely but head towards one which matches the above requirement.
4. Your family, their advice:
Your parents are more concerned about your future than you yourself. They love you and care about you the most. They always want you to choose the best career and achieve success in life. They might want you to do which you don’t like. There are various instances in which your choice doesn’t match with your parent’s advice.
The best way to deal with this situation is to take your parents into consideration and make them assure that you will do great with this career. Its just like the scene from the movie ‘3 idiots’ in which the character Farhan assured his parents about wild life photography while his parents want him to become an engineer. Always remember, everything is going to fade away. What lies within is joy and happiness.
Goals and passion |
Let’s conclude:
I think career choice is the first important step after your higher studies. You need to be on stable ground when taking decision at this stage. What you want will be name, fame, money, power, family, health, safety. But due to career selection, every thing won’t be achievable. Sometimes, there it be a silver spoon in the mouth.Try to live out with some adjustment. What will be your expectation and the quantity with which you will achieve would be according to the state of mind. You don’t need to follow others, rather get inspired around by some great people. Try not be a sheep in the herd and try to figure out things over and over.
Follow all the steps mentioned above and some other points which would you come around. Take some career test and do some counselling of yourself from some expert to know your passion and go around to achieve everything that is achievable. Wish you a successful career in future.
Thank you!
